The frequency of any repeating event is the number of times it happens in some specified period of time.

The frequency of a wave is the number of cycles, wiggles, compressions etc. that occur in a given time, usually one second.

How much force must be applied on a blade of length 4cm and thickness of 0.1mm to exert a pressure of 4000000pa?
Viktor [21]

Answer:

F= 403429 kpa

Explanation:

Pressure is the product of force and area

Mathematically,

P=F*A -------where F is force and A is area.

A= 40 *0.1 = 4mm² -----convert to m²

A= 4e⁻⁶ m²

P= 4000000 pa

F= P/A = 4000000/4e⁻⁶

F= 403428793.493 pa

F= 403429 kpa

Suppose that you are standing on a train accelerating at 0.20g (where g is the acceleration due to gravity). What minimum coeffi
prisoha [69]

Answer:

0.2

Explanation:

The given parameters are;

The acceleration of the train, a = 0.2·g

The mass of the person standing on the train = m

Let μ represent the coefficient of static friction, we have;

The force acting on the person, F = m × a = m × 0.2·g

The force of friction acting between the feet and the floor, F_f = m·g·μ

For the person not to slide we have;

The force acting on the person = The force of friction acting between the feet and the floor

F = F_f

∴ m × 0.2·g = m·g·μ

From which we get;

0.2 = μ

The coefficient of static friction that must exist between the feet and the floor if the person is not to slide, μ = 0.2.

A 40-W lightbulb is 1.7 m from a screen. What is the intensity of light incident on the screen? Assume that a lightbulb emits ra
Sonja [21]

Answer:

Intensity, I=1.101\ W/m^2

Explanation:

Power of the light bulb, P  = 40 W

Distance from screen, r = 1.7 m

Let I is the intensity of light incident on the screen. The power acting per unit area is called the intensity of the light. Its formula is given by :

I=\dfrac{P}{A}

I=\dfrac{P}{4\pi r^2}

I=\dfrac{40\ W}{4\pi (1.7\ m)^2}

I=1.101\ W/m^2

So, the intensity of light is 1.101\ W/m^2.
